The UFC celebrates it’s 25 year anniversary this week and to mark the occasion the promotion went back to where it began all those years ago, in Denver, Colorado.

It was a momentous occasion for both the promotion and the sport as a whole and the anniversary fight card certainly did not disappoint. The main event alone felt like the perfect fight to celebrate a quarter of a century of the Ultimate Fighting Championship with Yair Rodríguez and Chan Sung Jung putting on a fight of the year worthy performance before Rodríguez ended the fight with arguably one of the single greatest knockouts of all time.

As tensions rise between Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone (33-11-0) and former camp, Jackson Wink MMA, former team mate ‘Plantinum’ Mike Perry (12-3-0) is standing firm with the New Mexico based team.

During his appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience earlier this week Cerrone alledged that the arrival of Mike Winklejohn had seen the camp deteriorate into a ‘puppy farm’, claiming that he had been pushed out of the gym by Winklejohn in favour of his UFC Denver opponent, Perry.
